Abstract
It is essential for the successful establishment and support of police human rights policies to closely analyze citizens' perceptions of police activities. Therefore, what is the judgment of citizens on human rights violations that appeared in various police activities in this study? Is there a difference between the decision of the National Human Rights Commission and the perception of citizens? Also, what is the most important factor for citizens to consider in determining whether the police have violated human rights? We tried to find an answer to the question, does police-related characteristics affect citizens' evaluation of the level of human rights in our society? For the purpose of the study, a scenario questionnaire was produced based on the case of police activities determined that there was an actual human rights violation by the National Human Rights Commission, and an empirical study was conducted to measure and analyze citizens' perceptions on it. Based on the analysis results, it was possible to identify citizens' sensitivity and needs for human rights violations for each police activity, and to identify characteristics of police activities that affect the evaluation of human rights levels in Korea. Police human rights policies based on the research results are expected to play an important role in securing the legitimacy of police actions and restoring trust in the police.
